  3. Livability Action Plan The residents of 22202 from Arlington Ridge, Aurora Highlands, • and Crystal City have committed to tackling the challenges facing our area with holistic strategies based on shared livability themes to create a better, more livable city. Our shared area encompasses diverse populations and • neighborhoods, yet we have many common needs. Designing a livable city requires a comprehensive approach to shaping the built environment to enhance the physical and social health and well-being of all inhabitants and to strengthen community. The Livability 22202 framework is designed to work within • existing county plans and policies but aims to establish consensus-driven themes while allowing for creativity by residents, businesses, and developers. The Action Plan identifies specific objectives and • outcomes needed to accommodate the expected growth in the area over the next decade. 3
